FNG here. Been lurking for a while and enjoying.
I'm a 60 year old "gringo" in Texas. Been a pocket knife and knife gatherer for years. I like sharp, old, shiny stuff. Pretty much all of my knives predate 1960.
I also like old moto siggles and stuff that goes bang.
Got interested in razors and have been trying to learn everything I can. I've looked at just about everything ebay has and have read and looked at
several "blogs" devoted to razors.
I have an acquaintance in the UK that has 17 razors he'd like to trade. Some are NOS and some appear to be pretty well used up.
I realize this is my first post here but I am considering taking him up on his offer for the razors and thought I'd post his pics and ask if the deal is decent.
If this a breach of decorum, I apologize.
He placed a $200 price for trades and or cash for this lot.

Here is his description.
I'm not planning on an acquisition for re-sale. I may get enthused and try to use one or more at some point in the future and not try to add any more scars to my ugly mug than I already have.Quote:
The first two on the left column and the top and bottom razors on the right column in the first picture are all new un-used with two still having packing grease on them. They only have a tiny bit of peppering on the thumb lever at worst on them. The rest all need any where from a light polish to a complete overhaul. I showed the worst side of the ones in the second picture. They are all English or German with maybe a French one in there. Most have some nice etching on the blades. The handles are an assortment of horn, plastic, and celluloid.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Willie
